New Moon




Well as almost everyone else in the world, I too went and saw New Moon this past weekend. I really liked it!! I thought the acting and effects were better in this than Twilight.


Hopefully everyone loved it just as much as I did!! :)

Friday Fill-Ins


I know I'm a little late but I saw this on my good friends blog (Mrs. Rotty) and thought I would use it..
1. We need the weekend to last a bit longer.
2. We saw the festival of lights in Chicago and it made me smile.
3. If you want to reach something you have to work hard for it.
4. Live every day to the fullest because life is too short.
5. Massachusets has a proposed 5% sales tax on elective cosmetic surgery; I think I'm lucky cause I dont need cosmetic surgery.
6. Close friends and family makes for a happy holiday.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to seeing New Moon, tomorrow my plans include working and seeing the festival of lights and Sunday, I want to relax and sleep in!
